Trial Now Recruiting: Diagnosis and Treatment of Patients With Inborn Errors of Metabolism (NCT00369421)
Researchers at the National Institutes of Health are looking for up to 4,000 patients with rare metabolic disorders to study and treat. These are conditions where the body cannot properly break down certain substances because of missing or faulty proteins. Patients will receive exams and treatment, mostly as outpatients, though some may need to stay at the NIH Clinical Center for special tests.
